Control systems for HSM run out table cooling (Laminar Cooling) to reach the required coiling temperature.

The effects of laminar cooling:

• Keeping of coiling temperatures  ± 15 °C with differences of Exit Rolling Temperature 150 °C,
• Good agreement in predicted yield stress and tensile strength,
• Simulations – development of cooling technologies
• Extensive monitoring possibilities.
